Bark Angle An airplane, approching an airport for landing, had been asked to wait until the runway is clear. The plane flies a "holding pattern," which basically means it will fly in a circle at a constant height and speed. Suppose the 5.800x104 kg airplane has a speed of 390. km/h and needs to fly in a circle with a radius of 4.80 km. To turn, it will bank (tilt) its wings at some angle; this makes the aerodynamic lift force [(4)\vec] point up and to the left as shown below. What is the magnitude of the lift force on the plane as it travels in this circle?

Question
Bank Angle
An airplane, approching an airport for landing, had been asked to wait until the runway is clear. The plane
flies a "holding pattern," which basically means it will fly in a circle at a constant height and speed. Suppose
the 5.800x104 kg airplane has a speed of 390. km/h and needs to fly in a circle with a radius of 4.80 km. To
turn, it will bank (tilt) its wings at some angle; this makes the aerodynamic lift force [(L)\vec] point up and to
the left as shown below. What is the magnitude of the lift force on the plane as it travels in this circle?
